Description
Yashodhara is a masterpiece by renowned Hindi poet Maithili Sharan Gupt that offers a unique perspective on the life of Yashodhara, the wife of Siddhartha Gautama (Buddha). The work delves deep into her emotional journey, spiritual struggles, and the sacrifices she made as the Buddha embarked on his spiritual quest.
Through eloquent verse and profound storytelling, Gupt brings to life the inner world of Yashodhara, exploring her feelings of abandonment, longing, and eventual spiritual transformation. The narrative challenges conventional interpretations and presents her not merely as a supporting character, but as a significant spiritual seeker in her own right.

It examines timeless themes of love, duty, renunciation, and enlightenment, making it relevant across generations. The hardcover edition from Gyan Publishing House presents this important literary work in an accessible format for modern readers interested in Buddhist philosophy and classical Indian literature.
